Overview
Some settings of Exchange Online are still only manageable through PowerShell. Our Exchange server instance can be managed by PowerShell through a remote connection.
Pre-requisites
Note: These instructions may change as PowerShell and Exchange continues to be upgraded. Check with official docs if you encounter issues.
- To connect to Exchange Online via PowerShell, the EXO V2 (as of 2021-03-29) PowerShell module is required. This module contains the cmdlets necessary for Exchange administration tasks. To install, issue this command in PowerShell
Install-Module -Name ExchangeOnlineManagement - EXO V2 is supported in PowerShell v7 (the docs say this, despite the min version saying PS 3.0). This is currently a few versions newer than the PowerShell built-in to Windows. Newer versions are available on the official PowerShell GitHub
Documentation
How to connect to Exchange Online and other instructions are best learned through Microsoft's docs: Exchange Online PowerShell.
